Kerbashian scores in overtime as the Knights finally fight off Otters 6-5

Kale Kerbashian scored 1:55 into overtime as the London Knights survived a five-goal rally by the Erie Otters to earn a 6-5 win in Ontario Hockey League action Saturday night.

Kerbashian took advantage of a bad line change by the Otters and converted a two-on-one breakaway.

Phil Varone gave the Knights the lead when he lifted a shot over Otters goalie Jaroslav Janus and underneath the crossbar with 4:51 remaining in the opening period. Less than four minutes later, Nazem Kadri's team-leading fourth goal of the season extended London's advantage to 2-0.

Left wing Garett Hunter put the Knights ahead by three on a controversial goal 4:48 into the second. Hunter scored moments after London's Tucker Hunter had fallen on top of Janus just outside the crease.

London scored three goals on 10 shots in the second period and held a 5-0 lead by the 14:07 of the frame.
